Skyblock & Creative are out now! A full release will be posted within the next few days. Please note that the Hub is not working as intended, but for right now... it is working! We'll sort that out too!

With Skyblock fast approaching, we began evaluating advertising methods which included reviewing past advertisements on HCSurvival. Unfortunately, HCSurvival did not perform as well from advertisements compared to what it should have, and as a result, the overall performance of the server was crippled. We were spending almost four figures a month on advertisements at peak, and most of the time we would barely break even (and sometimes we didn't, which came out of my pocket...). Without successful advertisements, we cannot grow or achieve anything that we are hoping to.

This was because:

HCSurvival is a name that doesn't appeal to younger players, or players that are just looking for a good survival server (it sounds so hard!)

Our advertisements do not reach the wider Minecraft audience (even though our server caters for them perfectly) because of our niche

HCSurvival was just too much of a niche to be successful on its own. Furthermore, even though we tried... we just couldn't make Survival as hardcore as the name.
